We would like to introduce you all to Lisa's Wish Charitable Trust. Lisa's wish was to give children of parents/caregivers who are having cancer treatment - or have had cancer - a fun time.  
We, the Board, are ensuring her wish is carried out and so the Charitable Trust was registered 2009 a month before Lisa passed over. The website explains the policy and introduces Lisa to you all.
 
We have won sponsorship to provide events in the Auckland region and would like to introduce these to you all. If you have any children who would like to participate, please fill out the contact form on the website or give us a call on 09 298 9618 - leave a message for us to call you back as we work full time. There will always be one of the Board members attending each event and the Trust has passed Police Vetting
 
The events page on the website (still to be updated with photos from the events so far) explains how we have received our sponsorship; and where are plans are for the future.

We look forward to hearing from you and please pass on our phone number to your Auckland families. Our next Board meeting is 12th April, if anyone would like to come along and meet us. Thank you for your time in reading this and we especially want to be there for the children, as they too go through the emotional strain the parents/caregivers are going through/ have been through, during treatment time.
 
Kind regards
